A nice photo, Fred. And that's one big battery -- for an electric lorry, perhaps? A couple more recent acquisitions ...

Both of them very desirable Dinky Toys, Jonathan. The Spratt's is not that easy to find in good condition. You must be able to see the manually red painted area below the text, as discussed in the relevant thread before. A similar yellow glaziers lorry, Miroitier Simca 'Cargo', should be on its way to me now, but that one lacking the top decals, meant as it was for the Anglo Saxon export markets. Congratulations, Jan

Thanks, Jan! Yes, the hand-painted nature of the red strip is very clear. As for the Miroitier, yes, I have the version lacking the top decals -- which I believe only came in yellow? -- as well as the more typical gray one. It is interesting that even in export markets such as the U.S., the one without decals is relatively hard to find. I did not have one or even know of it until a few years ago.

Hello Richard! This one is the third variation I have. The others are the older regular grey and yellow ones, as shown at /node/6650 I thought this example of the 'blank' export variation was cheap and interesting enough to add. I guess I will never accumulate as many as you have shown us! KInd regards, Jan

Here are two new items ... the Opel Kapitan in this 'duck egg' blue seems to be relatively hard to find.

I have read that 42 Cargos are needed to have all the versions.

At last! It took slightly over 20 years to complete this famous Panhard Movic trio, with the arrival, yesterday, of the scarce (first, French, version) Panhard 'Kodak' articulated covered lorry (1953-1954). Panhard 'Esso' tanker September 2001, Panhard 'S.N.C.F.' artic October 2014 and this 'Kodak' April 2022. All of them have their variants, of course, but these suffice and make me happy enough! Kind regards, Jan

Jan--Congratulations on completing that wonderful little set of French Panhard artics. As you may well remember, the Kodak version is on of my all-time favorite Dinky Toys.....such a striking color and livery. I bought mine a little earlier....64 years ago in San Diego. Best regards, Terry
